Now the barrister and chef is opening a second site in one of the city’s hottest food quarters.

“It’s a perfect space for us,” she says. “We’ll be able to take bookings and cater for larger groups - things we’d love to do on Bold Street but just aren’t able to do because it is so tiny. We are so very grateful for the support the people of Liverpool have given us. I know it’s been frustrating to have up to three hour waits for a table on a Saturday night, and we can’t thank people enough for being so patient with us.”

Mowgli has already opened a Manchester site and there are plans for a Leeds restaurant too.

The new site will keep the same menu as the Bold Street site, and if all goes well it will be open later this Summer.

Nisha says: “Fingers crossed I’d love to open the doors and welcome people ​by late​ summer.”
